Overall, it didn't meet my expectation. There is no real bed for my double-bed room, there're two small pull-out sofa beds. For the price you pay, and vibe created, I should at least get real beds. Room was not ready after 3 pm and I had to keep reminding them that I have upcoming tour scheduled and needed to complete check-in. It was frustrating. The receptionist who checked me in did not bother to follow up on my room. Overall was a disappointment. The concierge was the only attentive staff and was kind to help when my room was not ready. Location is good. It's a disappointment besides that.

Didn’t think it was worth the money, over priced for what it is. Noise from nightclub nearby kept us awake as well as the room was cold on first night and no instructions on how to use the utilities. Managed to get the room warm by the time we were to leave.
